At least Cashners pitching today so theres something to look forward to.

come on cash, no walks no walks no walks

[TruffleShuffle]

peoria off days make me sad... their offense is fantastic and they're 21-5 in their last 26 games.

[Guest]

Cashner's dealing so far - 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K, 2-0 GO-FO.

[Guest]

3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 5 K.

 

Also, there's a lightning delay in the Daytona game. :roll:

[E.J.]

Having a minor league team in Daytona is wasteful.

meh it's not that bad of an outing. he struck out six and only gave up 11 batted balls in play and 5 of them turned into singles. plus his strike:ball ratio (46 strikes, 27 balls, or 1.70:1) wasn't too bad and he had 4 GO/2 AO. i mean, last outing people were saying he bounced back, but he gave up 4 walks in 5 innings, his strike rate was a little worse (1.67:1) and gave up 4 GO/9 FO - but only 2 out of 15 batted balls in play turned into hits. really these are just random variations; he was probably better tonight than last outing but just less lucky.

They make me extra sad when I'm in town and they have an off day. I was planning on going to the game last night but they unfortunately didn't have a game scheduled. The trip to Big Al's however, did not disappoint.

What is the story on Chris Robinson? A catcher hitting .333 at triple A...I see by the stats that he doesn't have much power but still...I guess I worry that Soto will either eat or smoke himself out of the league

he was the return in that wonderful Neifi trade. Solid defensively, he probably isn't going to hit for that much. He's in a bit of a jam, as I expect the Cubs to keep Koyie and Clevenger/Castillo are in the upper levels, and let's not leave out Chirinos, who could be a late bloomer at the spot (although betting money is still against ...)

[toonsterwu]

Two moves I really want to see

 

1) The obvious one - send JJ back to Tennessee.

2) Robert Hernandez to Peoria. As a fan, I'm just not sure what to read into his Boise performances. It's nice, but let me see him in Peoria. Heck, they are in the playoff race.

11 errors between our two DSL teams... i know defense is worse because those guys are young and lack polish, and dominican ballfields are bad, but our DSL teams desperately need a competent fielding instructor.
